Notas do Editor

  1. *People commute to work on motorcycles, cars, and public transportation
  2. Ref: http://www.safemotorist.com/articles/Defensive_Driving.aspx
  3. Get statistics or infographics
  4. Get statistics or infographics
  5. Get statistics or infographics
  6. 1stis heart disease and 2nd is a form of depressionRef: http://www.easts.info/on-line/journal_06/3183.pdfLoss of economic opportunity (measurable)*especially for public transport drivers and those who moonlight as service drivers after workLoss of productivity (measurable) *victim/s can’t go to work on the day of the accident itself or could even extend: get treatment if he/she is the victim, get settlement if third party is affected, get car fixed, transition from driving to public commute. *impacts team headcount and distribution of workload and so on.Damage to property (measurable)*vehicle & collateral damages like houses, etcPain, grief, and suffering (not measurable and therefore depends on the person experiencing it)
  7. *Get proper training…or at least be observant - Learn from reputable driving schools (e.g., A1)*Drivingis dynamic and it could greatly vary. Learn from the certified trainers and/or from other drivers (what you miss from dozing off during class could be learned from other good drivers – surprisingly, including jeepney drivers)
  8. *Handling. Is it stable? Can it make a quick turn?*Speed and acceleration is essential in overtaking*Test ABS if you can. Ask your dealer during test drives.
  9. BLOW BAG (battery, lights, oil, water (radiator), brakes, air (tires), gas)There is also BLOW FATCH (fuel/fluids (steering and braking, etc), accessories (air conditioner, electronics like audio, rear parking assists, etc), tools (early warning devices), cleanliness, horn – in New Delhi one only needs either horn (to honk at cars) and lights
  10. DON’T DRIVE when tired, sleepy, or intoxicated. Get enough rest, don’t drink and drive (or know your limits – different person different tolerance to alcohol. Acceptable Body Alcohol Content in most US states is .08MAINTAIN proper distancePractice the 3 seconds ruleIDENTIFY road hazardsScan and plan have an exit plan in cases when: vehicle in front stops someone form an oncoming lane decides to counterflow a wayward pedestrian crossesBE VISIBLE - signal before: making a turn, passing/overtaking - know when to turn on lights- If you can’t see his face, he can’t see you
  11. *Did you know that unbuckled passengers can cause death not only to himself but to others as well – they become flying objects (get speed)
  12. Pick a static object in front of the vehicle that your are following.When vehicle’s rear reached the selected object, start counting: “Thousand one…thousand two…”Your vehicle should have just reached the static object by “thousand three.” You are close if you have passed it before 3 seconds and you should slow down accordingly.(Note: Faster speed=bigger gap.)
